Dayton Repetitive Stress Injury Lawyers

Performing a motion one time, such as assembling a product or lifting a hospital patient, usually does not cause an injury. But doing it again and again can injure muscles, nerves and tendons. Little by little the damage is done, until the worker begins to notice that something is wrong.

If you have suffered a repetitive stress injury while performing your work duties, you have a right to claim workers' compensation benefits. However, those benefits will not come automatically. Because a repetitive stress injury is a "soft tissue" injury, it can be difficult to prove the severity of the injury or even its existence. To get benefits, you must show that the injury is real and that it adversely affects your ability to perform your job. Without skilled legal representation, you may not receive the workers' compensation benefits you deserve.
